Even for travelers who have no intention of sharing, the action of updating a personal record is often procrastinated, due to the necessary conscious effort to find time.
A Solution
The Travel Book is a mobile application that provides the ability to:
- quickly post new photos and short lines of text to the application's server, through your phone
- maintain a "timeline", or a chronologically-ordered record, of your travels (for either sharing or private use)
- see other users' updates on their timelines
As cameras on phones are getting better and better, more travelers are relying on their phones to take photos. The Travel Book allows travelers to upload these photos instantly, wherever they happen to be on their trips (provided that there is reception). The photos will be added to their timelines, ready for their friends and family members to see.
